Arcedges Building India LLP · ERPNext Phase 1 · KTree
How Arcedges works today, what the system will do about it, and what is still to be settled. Please read the parts that belong to your department and mark anything that differs from how you actually work.
Three documents that describe the business rather than the software. If you read nothing else, read these.
The production process written up with diagrams — the three elements of a job and the seven routes they take, the nine operations and two TPI gates on the structure route, and how a heat number survives from mill to truck. Every routing in the system depends on this being right.
Awaiting Gaurav’s review 03From Enquiry to ErectionOne real job, J-446, followed the whole way — sixteen stages with what actually happened at each, the three loops that send work back, how documents change, and the places the job stops. Every stage links to its specification and to the screen where one exists.
Updated 4 Oct 02Process Mind MapThe whole job lifecycle across twelve stages — every step, the register or format filled at each one, every approval gate and its approver, and where the process breaks today. Click a stage title to collapse it.
Updated 5 SeptemberOne page per module, numbered to match the feature catalogue. Each states the rules the system will follow, numbered so a correction can come back against a number, and ends with what is still open.
What the current system holds, what is used and what is not, and what that means before anything is designed.

Design mockups built on sample data, shown for your reaction. Not live figures. The job plan responds to its sliders — worth moving them.
One enquiry followed from log to order booking — seven screens with their stages, who moves each, and the fields that matter. Includes the masked view. Interactive.
ScreenJob PlanThe whole job as a Gantt — job, building, phase, activity. Move a driver and the plan recomputes; pull the target in and it says what would have to change. Interactive.
ScreenSchedule-JThe client-facing programme. Planned against forecast by building and phase, with the dependencies that rest with the client marked as theirs.
ScreenOrder BookEvery live job as one strip — how far each stage has gone, and which jobs have holds open.
ScreenJob StatusOne job at a glance: holds first, gates passed, watch items, and a progress bar per stage in MT.
ScreenJob DrilldownBuilding to phase to lot to piece: operations with counts and dates, buyouts, plan against actual, and job-work reconciliation.

What is still outstanding.
Three promised documents have not arrived: the BOQ format for rate-only enquiries, the engineering formats under review on 27 August, and Praveen’s erection flow chart.
The rest is questions, most of which take a sentence. They are listed by department in the pack above.
